    Which database did you start up?  The Minimal, or did you get a copy of
    the LambdaCORE and use that?  It sounds to me like you're using a
    Minimal, which I do NOT recommend, unless you are _very_ good at coding
    MOO and feel like spending an eternity programming, and want a MOO for a
    use entirely different from any other MOOs.  The core databases can be
    gotten in the same directory as the moo server.
